We are a full service company that does Commercial Painting in Connecticut as wells as private residential work. One job we did was in a nursing home, the hallways and a main recreational area. They important part about this kind of work is keeping on schedule and having a very clean and neat job. Here is one of our videos about this: http://youtu.be/fyhMAefRs_0?list=UUPqhZXm3tlefzuw_-YJCAPw

The hallways are always busy with residents strolling up and down them going to eat or activities so we don’t have the luxury of taping off an area where we are working. This is not a problem for us though, we are used to be highly conscientious on private work and we carry that same work ethic and consideration to our commercial work as well.

As always, please call us for any professional advice on painting you may need, even if you don’t hire us, we don’t mind at all helping you out over the phone!

There is a company out there called Wow 1 Day Painting! They advertise that they can do a job in one day for a customer, while it’s possible they can do a small job, or a room in one day. That’s why we made this blog Wow 1 Day Painting! Branford Ct . Usually it’s a hook to get their foot in the door of a customer.

We also offer the same services, we are very exact with what can be done in one day and what can’t be done. It’s important that the job maintains a high quality standard and doesn’t suffer due to a painter rushing to complete the job in one day simply because they claimed it can be done in one day. We will let you know exactly how long a job takes, we do that so we uphold a high standard of painting.http://youtu.be/ZkGovwMnMkI?list=UUPqhZXm3tlefzuw_-YJCAPw

We are happy to talk to you and answer any painting questions you may have about Wow 1 day painting, interior house painting or exterior house painting even if you intend on doing the job yourself.

Sometimes people will call the office and want a price over the phone to paint a room for them. It’s not an easy answer! A lot of the time the customer just doesn’t want to waste our time if we come out and it doesn’t fit their budget.

First, it’s hard to give a price over the phone because we don’t know what condition the room is in. Does it need extra patching? Or extra prep above the norm or maybe it’s a very very easy job that won’t take much time at all. So, we can end up over pricing or under pricing the job by not seeing it first. That is why we created this blog ” How Much To Paint A Room, Madison Ct” http://youtu.be/dyZLkiB9yAU?list=UUPqhZXm3tlefzuw_-YJCAPw

Second, we enjoy coming out and meeting with you for the estimate! A lot of great information is exchanged between us and the customer! The customer might just need some advice on how to do the room themselves and that’s great! We are so happy to offer advice on how to do the room and what kind of product to use.

So, please feel free to call us for an estimate for your home or for some professional advice!

People always dread when they know it’s time to take down wallpaper! They are worried that it will not peel right off and will end up in little tiny strips and pieces! Well, you don’t have to worry! That’s why we created this blog “How To Remove Wallpaper With Chomp, Madison Ct” here is a video

We found a really great product that helps up when we need to do a wallpaper removal job! The product is called “CHOMP” and it’s the best stuff we’ve ever worked with! all you need is a small garden sprayer and some

water and Chomp! I like to mix equal parts water and Chomp. Spray the mixture evenly over the wallpaper starting from the top and going down, just a light mist. Make sure that you have drop cloths on the floor. Allow the mixture to sit for about five minutes, then start at the top and pull a little corner and gently pull the wallpaper off the wall. After all the paper is removed, there will most likely be a film of wallpaper paste, so I spray one more application of the Chomp on the wall and wipe if off with a big wet sponge. This should leave your wall clean and smooth! If you have some difficult spots or the paper is not coming off in large sheets, you can use a wall paper scoring tool first over the paper and then spray Chomp over the paper, let sit and remove. If you have any questions or need some professional advice please call us!

Hi I’m David Moffitt, I’ve been a painting contractor for over 37 years and I have learned that the most important aspect of your paint job is the preparation! I know that this is a no-brainer, but there is a lot to it!

You need to really check the surfaces before you paint them, check for rotted wood, moisture areas, cracks, holes, uneven surfaces. Once you outline the areas that need attention, you need to take your time and know how to properly fix these issues. It does no good to buy the highest quality paint if it’s not going to be applied to a properly prepared surface! That is why I created this blog ” How a Professional Painter Does Preparation, Madison Ct.http://youtu.be/N2_BifV1c4w?list=UUPqhZXm3tlefzuw_-YJCAPw

Please feel free to call us for a professional estimate/evaluation of your home! I am happy to walk the job with you and explain things I see and how to fix it! If you are doing the job yourself, please call if you would like my advice, I am happy to give it!

I’m not trying to pick on College Pro painters, but it seems to me that that the law should apply to everyone. As I drive around my home town and other local towns in my area, I see the College Pro signs just plunked down anywhere they please. This is against the law. You are not allowed to put a company sign on any property that you are not contracted for work there.

I have been painting in this area for over 35 years and I know many other local painting contractors that I respect and they would never do this and my company doesn’t either! We follow our local town laws and respect them.

It’s a cheap illegal way to do business, which is the bottom line for College Pro Painters.

Here is my video with a photo of an illegally placed sign on town property:

Please feel free to call me with any painting questions, we are happy to help you!

The biggest key in getting a great paint job is hiring someone that understands the importance of prep work! This is why I created this blog How A Great Painting Job Gets Done Part 2, Madison CT.

Like I mentioned before in a previous article, I understand that price is important, but it should never be the only thing you look at! There is a vast difference between a true professional painter and a person that thinks they are a professional. Here is a good video below:

The biggest part of your estimate should be about the preparation done on your home before the finish paint is applied. What kind of prep work? The first thing to look for is rotted wood. During the estimate the person performing the estimate should check for any bad or rotted wood. This must be removed during the prep phase and new wood installed. Normally, it’s a ballpark figure to do the carpentry repair. They should be able to give you an hourly carpentry rate and an hour range for the labor.

Any newly replace wood should have primer put on it before anything else!

Does the house need to be power washed? It’s a very good idea to properly wash the house to remove dirt and/or mildew. Applying paint over a dirty surface would cause a lot of issues.

So carpentry repair and rotted wood removal is a very big step in the preparation process!

I hope this helps, please look up my How A Great Painting Job Gets Done Part 3, Madison Ct for more details! If you have any questions, please call us! We are happy to give professional advice over the phone!

It’s one thing to sort through estimates and find the price that fits your budget, but an important factor to getting a great painting job is in the prep work! This is why I created this article “How Great Painting Gets Done, Madison Ct. I understand that price is important but what good is it to go by price alone if you don’t get a high quality paint job? It’s like that old saying “Buy for price, buy twice”! But, you don’t have to worry about that!

Here are a few things to look for in an estimate:

-Make sure they are licensed with the state of Ct

-Make sure they have a lead license

In the estimate, make sure that they detail all the prep work that will get done, like, replace rotted wood. Scrape and sand. Use a high quality primer, make sure a high quality paint product like Benjamin Moore is used. Proper putty and caulking should be done.

There should be a clean looking crew that shows up on time and is neat and conscientious.

Without good prep work nothing else matters, it won’t look like a high quality job.

Customer Comments

“I recently used Coastline Painters to paint the interior and exterior of a newly-built accessory building on our property. The interior of the structure has a good amount of wood detail. I thought Coastline did a fantastic job not only with the painting but with all the prepping and staining of the wood. Dave, the owner, did several samples of paint and stain for me until I was satisfied with my color choices. His guys were always on-time and polite and were extremely accommodating if I pointed out any little detail that wasn’t to my liking. They never made me feel that I was too demanding. I believe they have a lot of pride in their work, and want their customers to be satisfied in the end. I plan on using their services in the future when it’s time to repaint our house.”
